1 Maccabees 13:27-29

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁷ And Simon built over the sepulchre of his father and of his brethren, a building lofty to the sight, of polished stone behind and before:

²⁸ And he set up seven pyramids one against another for his father and his mother, and his four brethren:

²⁹ And round about these he set great pillars: and upon the pillars arms for a perpetual memory: and by the arms ships carved, which might be seen by all that sailed on the sea.
